Voice analyzer and voice analysis system
First Claim
1. A voice analyzer comprising:
- a first voice acquisition unit that is provided in a place where a distance of a sound wave propagation path from the mouth of a user is a first distance and that acquires a voice of the user;
a plurality of second voice acquisition units that are provided in places where distances of sound wave propagation paths from the mouth of the user are smaller than the first distance and that acquire a voice of the user; and
an identification unit that identifies whether the voices acquired by the first and second voice acquisition units are voices of the user or voices of others excluding the user on the basis of a result of comparison between first sound pressure of a voice signal of the voice acquired by the first voice acquisition unit and second sound pressure calculated from sound pressure of a voice signal of the voice acquired by each of the plurality of second voice acquisition units.

Abstract
A voice analyzer includes a first voice acquisition unit provided in a place where a distance of a sound wave propagation path from a mouth of a user is a first distance, plural second voice acquisition units provided in places where distances of sound wave propagation paths from the mouth of the user are smaller than the first distance, and an identification unit that identifies whether the voices acquired by the first and second voice acquisition units are voices of the user or voices of others excluding the user on the basis of a result of comparison between first sound pressure of a voice signal of the voice acquired by the first voice acquisition unit and second sound pressure calculated from sound pressure of a voice signal of the voice acquired by each of the plural second voice acquisition units.

5. A voice analyzer comprising:
-
an apparatus body; a hanging string that is connected to the apparatus body and is used when the apparatus body is hung from a neck of a user; a first voice acquisition unit that is provided in the hanging string or the apparatus body, that is provided in a place where a distance of a sound wave propagation path from the mouth of the user, which is a distance when the apparatus body is hung from the neck of the user, is a first distance, and that acquires a voice of the user; a plurality of second voice acquisition units that are provided in the hanging string, that are provided in places where distances of sound wave propagation paths from the mouth of the user, which are distances when the apparatus body is hung from the neck of the user, are smaller than the first distance, and that are provided such that positions in a shoulder width direction of the user that are positions when the apparatus body is hung from the neck of the user are different; an identification unit that is provided in the apparatus body and that identifies whether the voices acquired by the first and second voice acquisition units are voices of the user or voices of others excluding the user on the basis of a result of comparison between first sound pressure of a voice signal of the voice acquired by the first voice acquisition unit and second sound pressure calculated from sound pressure of a voice signal of the voice acquired by each of the plurality of second voice acquisition units; and a transmission unit that is provided in the apparatus body and that transmits information regarding the voice signal, which includes an identification result of the identification unit, to an external device. - View Dependent Claims (6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A voice analysis system comprising:
-
a terminal apparatus worn by a user; and a host apparatus that acquires information from the terminal apparatus, wherein the terminal apparatus includes; a first voice acquisition unit that is provided in a place where a distance of a sound wave propagation path from the mouth of a user is a first distance and that acquires a voice of the user; a plurality of second voice acquisition units that are provided in places where distances of sound wave propagation paths from the mouth of the user are smaller than the first distance and that acquire a voice of the user; an identification unit that identifies whether the voices acquired by the first and second voice acquisition units are voices of the user or voices of others excluding the user on the basis of a result of comparison between first sound pressure of a voice signal of the voice acquired by the first voice acquisition unit and second sound pressure calculated from sound pressure of a voice signal of the voice acquired by each of the plurality of second voice acquisition units; and a transmission unit that transmits speaking information, which is information regarding the voice signal including an identification result of the identification unit, to the host apparatus, and the host apparatus includes; a receiving unit that receives the speaking information transmitted from the terminal apparatus; a storage unit that stores the speaking information received by the receiving unit for the terminal apparatus that transmits the speaking information; an analysis unit that analyzes the speaking information stored in the storage unit; and an output unit that outputs an analysis result of the analysis unit. - View Dependent Claims (14)
